Hello everyone! We just returned from our weekly appointment and so far there isn't much to report. The baby has dropped and she's in the correct position, but who knows when she'll decide to grace us with her presence?! Last week our doctor said if I deliver on our due date she expects little miss smith to be about 6.5 pounds.
As of today I still feel great...just very tired! The swollen hands and feet count is still under 5 days for the entire pregnancy and I was able to go 36 weeks without even the hint of a stretchmark on my belly...sadly, they finally made their appearance heading into week 37.
Time seems to be passing very quickly now as we prepare for the big event...It doesn't seem real that we are going to have a baby at the end of the month! While we've had all year to prepare for her arrival, it is still difficult to imagine that in such a short period of time a brand new little person can be created! God's design is so amazing!
As many of you may know, this pregnancy has been incredible for us! After hearing several horror stories, I am fortunate to say that it was much easier and better than I expected. I truly enjoyed this season in my life and honestly, I am a little sad that it has to end (but oh so excited to meet our baby girl!). I thank our family and friends for all the support, and I thank God for His unending mercy and grace!
Hope all is well with our loved ones!
XOXO

I am so excited about my little niece and I can't wait to meet her. I really hope to come to Kansas City sometime soon so that I can see your house and little Maybell. (Maybell Smith has a nice ring - and I will allow you to do Maybell Kristen Smith if you like)
